Well, we could each cite dozens of competing examples, but more fundamentally I think you’re imagining a very specific type of monarch with very specific aims. A monarch may not wish to maximise personal value, and may not think it’d be achieved by maximising realm value.

Will Britain be better governed if Charles takes the throne and declares himself to be an absolute monarch? I’m sorry, I just don’t see it. Not everyone is Frederick the Great. Humans are rarely rational, and Charles wouldn’t even benefit from competition (as CEOs do).
